 That's another thing that is very special with this virus .

A lot of infected  people have no symptoms at all , but are still able to spread the virus ...

A lot of people will simply not know that they are infected ... good for them , because being infected without symptoms means not sick ( yet ) , but to others it is dangerous because they may get the infection by those asymptomatic spreaders and become sick .

Another reminder that reducing quarantine time is playing a silly game.

Re do  the headline TWO THAIS one foreigner   found to have covid 19 so it matches the other sh-it stirring headline

The fact that they only headlined the number of people is a leap forward.
